PLENTY OF PATTERNS!

Hi SK team, I was just wondering if I’d get a mag this month when it arrived this morning! Well done on giving us lots of doable and inspiring items. My sister gave me one very large ball of yarn that can be the basis of your current KAL blanket. I could make the bolster cushion (SK 198) from stash yarn, including a ripped and much worn cotton jumper of old, and might make it fit my recently repainted deck chair! I will also probably do a hanger cover. I’ve sent a pic of last year’s flower basket tea cosy which comes out to the garden with me. Thank you again for your special e orts.

You’re very welcome Joan – it’s been such a privilege to be able to continue with our work (from home!) knowing that we’re helping people keep occupied through these di cult times. And I love your fun floral tea cosy!

SUPER STRIPES

I love your magazine and how it inspires me every month. Knitting has been my passion for a long time and I love to see new ideas and projects. I want to share my Monica Russel jumper from issue 194, finished just in time for my daughter’s birthday. I hope she loves it as much as I loved knitting it.

I bet she will Annie – it looks fabulous!

CUTE KOALAS

Along with many other people I have been knitting pouches for rescued koalas from the Australian fires, and thought you might like to see one of my e orts. I think it looks rather cute on our toy koala! I just hope that these pouches help these creatures.

He looks adorable Joy! And well done for knitting for such a good cause.
